Native Shrubs and Fruit Trees – Spring 2026
May 11 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Growing fruit trees and shrubs in Minnesota can be tricky because of our short growing season. One solution is to grow native fruit trees and shrubs!
Join us to learn how to make it work. Learn about hardy fruit trees and shrubs that will flourish in our backyards, sustaining both people and local wildlife. There are more varieties than you might expect, and many are available for purchase.
Participants will get an informational folder with helpful resources, and several bare-root trees will be given away as door prizes.
This program is offered in partnership with the Comfort Lake–Forest Lake Watershed District.
